Browns Leave QB2 Undecided for Steelers Game as Shedeur Sanders Competes With Bailey Zappe

Kevin Stefanski signals a deliberate development track for the rookie rather than a quick elevation.

Overview

  • Stefanski declined to name Shedeur Sanders the No. 2 quarterback for Sunday in Pittsburgh, keeping the role open.
  • Coverage frames the spot as a competition between Sanders and Bailey Zappe for short‑term depth.
  • Local analysts argue it may be too soon to deviate from the Browns’ plan to develop Sanders as an emergency option.
  • Zappe is viewed by some reporters as the steadier in‑game replacement if the Browns need someone mid‑contest.
  • A separate Yahoo Sports segment references reports that UNC is discussing an exit strategy for Bill Belichick, which remain unconfirmed.
